The average cola drinkers consumption of cola, however, declines with increasing age. Both of these trends have remained stable for the past 40 years. Given that the number of older adul

We should, therefore, consider transferring our investments from Cola Loca to Early Bird Coffee.”Discuss how wel

4、l reasoned. etc.一家投资财经咨询公司的商务计划：研究显示一个普通咖啡消费者的咖啡消耗从10到60岁随年龄增长，甚至在60岁以后，咖啡消费仍然保持很高。而一般的可乐消费者的可乐消费随年龄增加递减。在过去40年中这两个趋势都很稳定。由于在未来的20年内老年人口将显著增加，咖啡需求回增长而可乐需求会降低。因此，我们应该考虑将我们的投资从可口可乐转向雀巢咖啡。In this argument a consulting firm recommends the transfer of investments from Cola Loca to Early Bird Coffee becau

5、se, during the next 20 years, coffee demand will increase while cola demand will decrease. This prediction is based on the expectation that the number of older adults will significantly increase over the next 20 years, together with statistics, reportedly stable for the past 40 years, indicating tha

For three reasons, this financial advice may not be sound.First, the argument assumes that relative supply conditions will remain unchanged over the next twenty years. However, the supply and cost of cola an

These factors may affect comparative prices of coffee and cola, which in turn may affect comparative demand and the value of investments in coffee and cola compani

Without considering other factors that contribute to the value of a coffee or cola company, the firm cannot justify its recommendation.Secondly, the argument fails to account for the timing of the increase in coffee consumption. Perhaps the population will age dramatically during the next five y

An investor has more opportunity to profit over the short and long term in the first scenario than in the second, assuming the investor can s

If the second scenario reflects the facts, the firms recommendation would be ill-founded.Finally, the firm unjustifiably relies on the studies that correlate coffee and cola consumption with age. The firm does not provide evidence to confirm the reliability of the st

Moreover, while the phrase “studies suggest” may appear to lend credibility to these claims, the phrase is vague enough to actually render the claims worthless, in the absence of any information about them.In conclusion, the firm should not transfer investments from Cola Loca to Early Bird Coffee on the basis of this argument. To better evaluate the recommendation, we would need more information about the study upon which it relies. We would als
